Always check current regulations or seek second opinions from other video sources or websites. Anyone working at ANY height should be fully trained and insured to do so and use the correct access equipment. Anyone working on ANY project does so at their own risk!

In this video I will be installing an abutment soaker also known commonly as an abutment gutter, or secret gutter. This is a slightly unusual example as it shows the fitting of the abutment gutter into a concrete profiled tile roof rather than the usual flat profiled tiles. But I think it's a good example to show, as you can see easily how to adapt this for most roof needs or chimney details as well.
